: What is necessary for pancake egg success?

First...lots of patience...they take a LONG time to incubate! (anywhere from 130 to 160 days)

Dampen the vermiculite..just until it is moist and aim for about 60%+ humidity. 30 degrees C is fine. :-)

Keep the vermiculite just moist by occasional misting...which you shouldn't need to do too often, keep a wet sponge in a snall dish inside of the incubator to be on the safe side...but don't allow the vermiculite become soggy.

Best of luck with that egg!

Annie
